1t makes a mighty sight Of difference with
n fellow to know his horses. By always driV-
ing the same team the horses get 50 that they
know what YOU are doing. Some men cannot
drive a team on the road at all unless they
have pole between the horses, and pole is
an awful nuisance in street car driving, es-
pe,.ially in cases of threatened accident. In the
seven wears that have been driving | have
had many narrow escarcs by being able to
turn the horses quickly 10 one side or the
other You can't do that with IA poe. l have
never had anything to happen to me beyond
the smashing of a window. That happened
once in front Of the Astor house, where a
truckman WAS hacking ont with load The
worst trouble we have Is with the women who
90 ont into the middle of the street and dodge
back and forth. If they would stand still we
would know Just what 70 do with our car and
our horses, but they make dash across the
street, then jump back, and then dash for
ward, and then make another dash back, 81
| that in the uncertainty Of what they are 60
| ing 10 do it is a wonder that We do not run
| over IA woman every day.
The general average of street car drivers
| have their wits so much shout them that if a
| person who happens TO gst in front of car
| will only stand still there is not the slightes;
| danger of his being run over. Most of the
men in New York have couie to understand
this, and you rarely hear of an accident il
| which u man is run over by IA street car
| How many people do we take up and dow
on the routel Well that depends on tn,
hour of our trip On this trip, On which
started at 10 O'Clock, we viii probably hav'

The Beau Ideal Of a Family Medicine.

4 remedy which promptly and com
pletely relieves ailments of such common
occurrence as indigestion, constipation,
biliousness and disorders of a maarial
type, is assuredly the beau ideal of fam
lily medicine. Such is hOstetter's StomN
ach Biters, which is not only capable of
eradicating the complaints, but also
counteracting a tendency to kidney
troubles, rheumatism and premature de-
cadence of stamina. Taking it "sll
around" as the phrase is, there is proba-
bly, not in existence so useful, effective
and agreeable household panacea as the
bitlers Nor is it less highly esteemed by
the medical profession than by the fami'
lies of America, NambeTless testimoni'
ais from professional sources of irrefrsga-
bic authenticity evince its merit. The
demand for it abroad, no less than in the
land of its discovery. is certainly increas'
ing. time and experience of its benefieent
effects confirming the high opinion
originally formed of it,

Mysterious Disappearance.

w. Modesty Carter is 10 more than
peck Of troule. This time II Is the
mysterious disappearance Of his won-
derful wolf dogs. They had been
housed In the basement at the Mac.
queen house for about a week, being
kept up until such time as it Was
found convenient to send them out to
johnson q Graham's cattle ranch on
Powder river. Yesterday morning
when some meat was taken to the
basement for tho purpose Of feeding
the animals-they were gone. Mr..
Carter was at once informed of the
fact and IL inconsolable. The remark
able part OF the the affair ID that no
one had caught sight of the dogs and
this strengthens Mr.. Csrter's svowed
belief that they have undoubtedly been
stolen. The services Of Levi were
chartered in the forenoon to seek for
the CANNES and Carter has been max
ing inquiries OF everyone with no
point Of success. Last night he tele-
graphed up and down the road, giving
description OF the animals and offer
ing a reward for their recovery.

The reduction of internal revenue
and the taking off Of revenue stamps
from Proprietary Medicines, no doubt
has largely benefited the consumers,
as well as relieving the burden of
home manufacturers. Especially is
this the case with Green's August
Flower and Boscbee's German Syrup,
as the reduction Of thirty-six cents per
dozen. has been added to increase .he
size Of the bottles containing these
remedies, thereby giving one-Afth
more medicine In the 75 cent size. The
August Flower for Dyspepsia and
Liver Complaint, and the German
Syrup for Cough and Lung troubles,
have perhaps, the largest sale Of any
medicines In the world. The advn-
tage Of increased size OF the bottles
will be greatly appreciated by the sick
and afflicted, In every town and vii
lage in civilized countries. sample

Trade during the week has been very
steady, ana have to report q strong
market to-day with not quite 5000
sheep here for sale. 1t shows that our
sheep market is In q healthy condition
when we have to report about 10000
sheep being received here during the
month of August, the largest receipts
for any one month on record, save the
month of March last, when we re-
ceived l27,OOO. We look for q good
trade right along on good straight
mutton sheep, both native and west
erns, that are fat, and expect TO have q
fair number of farmers and feeders on
the marke from this on TO secure their
feeding sheep for the winter and
spring months. The burning of Ar.

on our trade for time, and Is Jet; but

THE LAST CALL.

THE LAST TCALL.
Life or Death Take Your Choice.
This 9th day Of September, 1887, ia
probably the most important one that
has ever dswned on Miles City, 90 far
as its local interests are concerned.
To-day the owners Of the town are to
record their choice whether 1t shall be
an incorporated city or not. To-day
they are to choose between prosperity
and decay. The result at the polls TO-
day will decide in the minds of all
who are foOt.loose whether they will
remain here or seek more progressive
and ambitious community. The is.
sue has been discussed at length and
In detail In these columns. Every ad.
vantage arising from Incorporation
has been set forth, and every argu-
ment Of the opposition met and refut.
ed. The preliminary skirmishes are
at an end and to-day the battle is to
be fought, on the result of which de-
pends the immediate future of our
town. While there is every reason to
believe that incorporation will carry
the day, there is altogether too much
at stake to permit any feeling Of Sc
curity to induce q relaxation of effort
Everybody qualified to vote, should
make 1t point to cast vote in favor
of incorporation. The vote will be
small at best as many of our best citi.
zens are absent from the city and con-
certed effort of the opposition might
be dangerous. Let no man neglect
his duty in this matter. We have
everything to gain and nothing to
lose by the experiment, and we know
